A love day on the Polish countryside is twice as nice when you're rollin' with a pack of tanks. This time around you are not merely riding on rails -- You have full control of the tank! Forget your normal FPS controls as a tank controls more like a mech. Your movement (controlled by the W, A, S, and D keys) is independent of where you aim the turret (by using the mousepad). The vertical red bar on the right indicates the tanks health. Obviously, if it goes to zilch, you go boom. The shell icon indicates when a round is loaded. You can see the positioning of your tank by looking at the icon on the bottom left. The arrow points the way you are facing and the direction you will move if you go forward.

Objective 1: Reach the outskirts of the next town

There are two main skirmishes on this short mission. Though the second battle features many more tanks, the tactics never change when fighting in your metal beast. Move often. You can aim and move independently. Use that to your advantage. Move. Stop and fire. Move again. The longer you stay still, the longer the enemy has to draw a bead on you. Use your men as cover. That's right, you are the only one who must survive a given level, so stay behind the other tanks. Let them take the brunt of the attack while you sit back and fire from a safer distance. Aim and then fire. It's easy to get caught up in the action and fire wildly, but since it takes time to reload an artillery shell, take the time necessary to aim at the enemy. A sure shot that takes 10 seconds is better than a rushed shot that misses in only 5 seconds.

When you hit the second batch of enemies, where tanks come from the woodwork, stay back and do your fighting along the left edge of the arena. Once the tanks are destroyed, head down the path to the right to complete the mission.
